22nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Ended last season with a course win (2m1f, soft) and will be fine over today's longer trip but has been badly out of form this term and seems best suited by soft ground. |

10st 9lb |
10yo who wasn't at his best last year but all six of his wins have come here and his third of six over C&D (good to soft) in November was a step back in the right direction; another 2lb lower today; in calculations. |

4th Aug 2023 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Has put together a series of solid runs this spring/summer (once under Brian Hughes), the latest when not beaten far at Stratford last month; that took his losing run to 17, however, and others more compelling. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Veteran who gained four of his 14 wins here (one over C&D); ran much better than eventual 22l defeat might suggest on slower-than-ideal ground at Cartmel (2m1f good to soft) a fortnight ago; worth a second look here, even from 4lb out of the weights. |

29th Jun 2025 Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Veteran who has won 14 races in his career including three over C&D; 13lb below his last winning mark but his efforts since last autumn leave plenty to be desired. |
20/1 |

28th May 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Veteran with three C&D wins and seven other chase victories on his CV; lurks on a dangerous mark but has been out of form this spring (cheekpieces added last time) and the ground may turn against him today. |

4th Feb 2024 Good To Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Ended last year with below-par C&D run (bled from the nose) and was beaten when falling over 2m4f here on New Year's Day; needs to get back in the groove but has very good chasing strike-rate (7-25) and his current mark is workable. |
